@WaveBoy i now fully agree with you. I've never personally tried the joycon as pointers but have since watched a test video and it simply isn't possible. This is a complete waste of a good port in my opinion.
@JohnnyC No it wouldn't because Nintendo don't release an F-zero every year. The facts are if RMX had never come to light, but instead Nintendo took over the project and re-skinned it as F-zero nobody would know any different. And everybody would love it, just as they did with RMX.
@JayJ As I said 'evolutuion' playing games like Dead Second, which is essentially time crisis, in VR is amazing. Just feels exactly the same only with the extra immersion.
@JohnnyC Tell me how it's different? F-Zero is a racing game built in exactly the same way, the fact that it was developed by a smaller studio, although heavily funded by Nintendo makes no difference. Adding or altering to classic games is where everybody goes wrong. there is a reason the original F-Zero is still so loved and fun to play.
@JayJ It's a learning curve, and aside from it being the evolution of classic light gun games, you can also play most of those classic arcade shooters on it.
@JohnnyC Well seeing as they funded much of the development and publishing for Fast RMX I'd say that cannot be true. My other point is why didn't they simply re-skin RMX into F-Zero. The game was there and existed, it would of totally worked.
@AlienX Oh man, being a huge Batman fan I clearly remember going to Woolworths and purchasing the game with my hard earned pocket money. It looked cool, music was decent but it plays like a melted left shoe on a right hand.
@sanderev It was strictly in a private meeting between me and them. They wanted to know what I thought about the system before they announced it and if I had any suggestions on how to make it better, obviously i did.
The Virtual boy was an incredible thing, it was merely the hardware that wasn't quite up to the task. Play those games today or a proper 3D headset and it is an amazing experience.
This was literally my first comment after seeing the trailer. utterly uninspired drivel. Kinda what Street Fighter has sadly become. I look forward to the new Ultra installment on Switch.
@dusterfalcon WOW! Cyber Shadow kicked my ass to the point that I've never finished it and probably never will. I can get through most of the Gaidens without too much trouble.
God bless the clever people that created this incredible program and those that continue to update it. I will never forget the day I was able to play Shinobi in my bedroom. A truly incredible experience.
@Troll_Decimator They don't go through anyone, LR buys the licence. Platinum couldn't care less if it's physical or not and that side has nothing to do with them.

Zero chance this is going to run on the witch to any playable level.
Re: Out Run-Inspired Retro Racer 'Slipstream' Drifts Onto Switch In April
This looks quite spectacular, cars are a little boring.

Re: Review: Wife Quest - A Bawdy Metroidvania That's Well Worth A Look
I'm honestly surprised at the score as it looks so average.

@Zuljaras In ancient Japan, all women were men in wigs.
Re: Here's A First Look At The House Of The Dead: Remake Physical Switch Release
I love this game, but no guns is absolutely pointless, and I can't believe so many people are hyped to play it with cross hairs.
Re: Bandai Namco Announces .hack//G.U. Last Recode Physical Switch Release
@ReaperMelia I've never played any of them but always been interested, anything you can say that they are similar to?

Re: Konami Announces Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection For Switch
Bravo Konami.
Re: Unofficial F-Zero 'World Championship' Aims To Celebrate The 30th Anniversary Of The Series
@JohnnyC If it were re-skinned tell me how it would be different?

Re: The House Of The Dead: Remake Is Alive, Gets Switch Release Date
I'm assuming this will work with the joycons? if this is just cross hair aiming it's completely pointless.

Re: Best Batman Games On Nintendo Systems
How is brave and the bold on wii before any of the NES games??? This is lunacy.
Re: 'BullFighter NEON' Swishes Its Cyber-Cape On Kickstarter, With Switch As A Stretch Goal
@HamatoYoshi Sega thought it was a good idea too.
Re: 'BullFighter NEON' Swishes Its Cyber-Cape On Kickstarter, With Switch As A Stretch Goal
@HamatoYoshi SEGA also did.
Re: 'BullFighter NEON' Swishes Its Cyber-Cape On Kickstarter, With Switch As A Stretch Goal
Bull fighting is horrendous and should not happen anywhere at all, but this game looks awesome. They've captured the Neo Geo aesthetic perfectly.
Re: Unofficial F-Zero 'World Championship' Aims To Celebrate The 30th Anniversary Of The Series
@judaspete It's just a bit of fun, a gathered appreciation of the game. Go on, throw your hat in the ring.
Re: Wonder Boy Collection Is Coming To Switch This Year
@OorWullie Sega arcade election would be amazing, and so so overdue!!

Re: Retro Pixel Art Shmup 'Z-Warp' Hyperdrives Onto Switch This April
@OorWullie same devs, same series.
Re: Random: Uh Oh, It Looks Like Steam Deck And Switch Might Have One Thing In Common
That's awkward after they claimed it wouldn't happen......I think?

I cannot wait for my copy of Elden Ring to arrive. The game looks incredible.
Re: Japanese Charts: Switch Exclusive 'Touken Ranbu Warriors' Claims Top Spot On Its Debut
@CowCatcher it's hugely unpopular in Japan. I remember when they pulled the XBOX One from the shelves it was selling less than twenty units a week.

Re: ICYMI: Kharon's Crypt Is Like Zelda Viewed Through The Lens Of Dark Souls, And It Rules
@Specter_of-the_OLED because it hasn't been programmed within the constraints.

@Vivianeat Ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. yeah really niche.
Re: Review: Sol Cresta - PlatinumGames' Intriguing Shmup Doesn't Do Enough To Stand Out
What a waste of a licence and the possible rebirth of the franchise. Glad I didn't waste money on it.
Re: Check Out The Launch Trailer For River City Girls Zero
Not fussed about the game, it looks like a really average snes title, but the animation of the trailer was incredible.
Re: Review: Infernax - A Great, Gory Throwback That's More Ninja Gaiden Than Castlevania
@dusterfalcon WOW! Cyber Shadow kicked my ass to the point that I've never finished it and probably never will. I can get through most of the Gaidens without too much trouble.
Re: Capcom Just Started A Countdown Timer, But What's It For?
more stadium arcade games. PLEASSEeeeeeee
Re: Review: Infernax - A Great, Gory Throwback That's More Ninja Gaiden Than Castlevania
@OldManHermit cyber Shadow is much harder than Ninja Gaiden.
